Good planning of photography spots in Sertões is critical to have the best action shots. These places are not always easy to reach or leave, but if they are the best, that’s where we go. But sometimes the information we receive from the organizers does not match reality and we get frustrated when arriving at a bad spot. This year, days before the start, I went through the whole rally routes in a different way: by Google Earth. With the GPS route in hand, I examined every curve of more than 4000km of race, analyzed the terrain textures, the published photos, and marked picture waypoints for the whole 8-photographers team. I have also traced access and escape routes, shortcuts that were a great time saver. The process was successful, and the hours of sleep were highly increased: a well-done homework means acing the exams!
